Re: G-Codes to Stepper Pulses?

I am running a Shoptask 3 in 1 machine converted to CNC and run it in both
lathe and mill mode. I was using DeskNC which has mill and lathe specific
modes, but now I am using EMC and just changed the setting in my CAM package
to spit out the lathe code as X and Y instead of the conventional X and Z.
That change along with a separate run, ini, and parameters table has it
working just fine.
